What does DEBUR mean in Scrabble?
verb
technical
To remove burrs, rough edges, or small ridges of metal left behind after cutting, drilling, or machining.
Workers debur a metal part by filing, grinding, or tumbling away the sharp slivers that cutting tools leave along an edge, since these burrs can injure hands or interfere with how parts fit together. Factories sometimes use automated tumbling machines or vibratory finishers to debur large batches of small components at once. Deburring is considered an essential finishing step in machining and manufacturing, coming after the main cutting or drilling operation.
